Our "Thank a Comet" website feature allows you to write a thank you note to a Cardinal student, staff member, parent, or community member. 

We've collected all of the thank you notes we received this month (and that we have permission to share) here in this post. Enjoy!


Person to Thank
Ms. Guest

Thank You Note

She's made choir fun, both years that I've been in it since she came here, I've enjoyed it. She made my first year of choir very enjoyable and overall made me love musical activities more.

Aaron Swaim

Thank You Note

Mr. Swaim does a great job of fulfilling his duties but also goes above and beyond. He often does things that other people may not see. His heart is in the right place.

Person to Thank
Kayeleigh Rook

Thank You Note

As the school year gets closer to the end, we would like to thank Mrs. Rook for all she has done for our daughter this year. She has helped her grow not only educationally but also socially and emotionally. Honestly, words cannot express how much we appreciate her and are thankful she taught our daughter this year.

Person to Thank
Jennifer Spurgeon

Thank You Note

Jenn is the best bus driver! I'm so thankful for all she does. She really cares and goes out of her way to make sure she does all she can to pick up your child so you as a parent don't have to drive them to school if you missed the bus. Jenn is truly amazing and I appreciate her SO much!

My real endorsement of Cardinal Schools and its faculty and staff can be seen each morning when I hand them the one irreplaceable and most valuable thing in my life: my kids. No letter I write could be a greater endorsement than that simple act. I give them my kids, and I do it with a huge smile on my face because I trust them to do what they are most outstanding at: building our future.
